The idea of a Local Economy was about how big corporations are not only destroying the environment by the people as well. That by supporting local companies it will lead to growth and the community will be able to strive." without prosperous local economies, the people have no power and the land no voice." By this he means that by supporting local businesses it will allow the community to grow and become stronger. He goes on to say that big corporations don't have the local community best interest at heart and that they only care about profit.
The Nobel Peace Prize that i did was "Inner Peace and Human Rights". This speech was about the Dalai Lama and how with inner peace you can find happiness and have the ability to overcome challenges. "Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries or with hose who have been appointed or elected to do a particular job.It lies with each one of us individually." I agree with this quote because it is up to us as a whole to decided what should be done not just one person.
That is a really good quote by Dalai Lama. There is a lot of truth in that.
ReplyDeleteI agree with both the quotes you used. The thing I took from the quote from the idea of a local economy is that the people run local economies and that if the big corporations completely get rid of them, that the people will loose their power.
ReplyDeleteI also thought that Dalai Lama was a very interesting guy. I think that they power needs to be shifted into the hands of the local businesses again. I also agree with both of the quotes that you picked. Individuals have more power than most of them know.
